Fort Yawuh (LP)

Original Japanese edition on Impulse!/ABC of the 1973 live album featuring Charlie Haden. With insert and obi.

condition (record/cover): NM / EX- (light foxing on back)

Gatefold sleeve. Insert and obi included.

Recorded live at the Village Vanguard in 1973, and the best available argument that the American Quartet was the most interesting band Keith Jarrett ever led. Dewey Redman brings a tenor sound out of Fort Worth that is rough, vocal and completely unlike anything in the ECM world; Charlie Haden and Paul Motian supply a rhythm section that had already spent years playing free with Ornette and Bill Evans respectively. Jarrett plays piano, soprano saxophone and assorted percussion, and the music moves between country-flavoured melody, gospel and outright collective abstraction, sometimes within one piece.

Japanese Impulse! pressing. Loose, argumentative and considerably wilder than the solo records that made his name.
